System's been working fine for about a year. Recently stopped posting and had no video display. Dr Debug code 00 (check cpu installed and reset CMOS). Did that and started getting tons of other codes. I can get into the MB setup menu, however I just get a flashing cursor when I try and load the OS.

After the 00 cleared, started getting an A2 (Sata issues) after rolling through a bunch of codes. Long story short disconnected vid cards, ram, and all SATA, reseated CPU and reset CMOS. All sorts of codes but looks like the majority are related to Memory issues even without it installed. (00, 15, 28, 35, 36, 4f, 67, 69, 19, 55, 99, and then stopping in A2 finally)

Bios 1.30. Sounds like board has died? Any quick fixes like reflashing bios or something before I call the time of death?

Thank you much!!

1| As per your products support page, you have a later version for your BIOS it may be worth while to use a secondary machine and have your BIOS files written onto the root directory of a USB2.0 thumb drive in order to avail the crash free BIOS function on your board.

2| If you can boot into BIOS, then you should update your BIOS regardless.

3| If you're trying to troubleshoot with one stick of ram, have it on the left most slot(closest to CPU socket), DIMM A1, and see if system boots. If that fails you can try and use memtest86 to verify if the sticks are at fault or if the slots are at fault or both. It would be good if you could source a DDR3 stick of ram that is rated at 1333MHz or 1600MHz, from a friend...

You didn't state your full system's specs though.
